Heal the King

"..." Tao Han loosened his grip on the front of his chest, and patted his chest twice.

Xu Yiqing grabbed his hand and pressed it to his chest when he took the third shot, looking away at the phone.

"Hey." Tao Han made an unknown sound in a low voice.

"Jealous." Xu Yiqing laughed.

"I eat your vinegar, so I can soak it in a vinegar jar to make sauerkraut." Tao Han said.

Xu Yiqing squeezed his hand, without looking up, and continued to reply the message.

Tao Han leaned against him and hugged him for a while, and finally couldn't help but leaned his head to look.

"Aren't you jealous?" Xu Yiqing asked.

"...Look what's wrong." Tao Han squeezed into his arms, and it became a gesture of hugging Tao Han from behind.

Xu Yiqing wrapped his arms around him from behind, resting his head on his shoulder to answer the message.

Tao Han waited for him to finish the answer, stretched out his index finger, and swiped up a few times.

Chu order:

——Teacher Xu, are you there?

Xu Yiqing:

——Well, what's the matter?

Chu order:

——I don’t know if you have seen some recent trends, I know my team, and I have been actively contacting you to be a guest or participate in some other variety shows.

——I feel that these one-sided actions of our team may... have some influence on you or you find it disgusting, so I want to say hello.

Xu Yiqing:

- I'm fine.

——After all, we are operated by the team behind us, we can’t help ourselves, we understand.

Chu order:

——Teacher Xu, it’s good that you understand, we have been together for a few months, and I know what kind of person you are.I hope it doesn't bother you and your boyfriend.

Xu Yiqing:

— don't bother.

Tao Han snapped his fingers: "Pfft."

"What are you doing?" Xu Yiqing whispered in his ear.

"You're so good, Mr. Xu." Tao Han pointed at the sentence with his hand, and couldn't stop laughing, "How do you let others take it?"

"Isn't this just to make the other party stop answering..." Xu Yiqing said.

Tao Han swiped down, but Chu Ling still answered:

—That's good, I don't want this kind of thing to spoil.I still have a lot to learn from Mr. Xu in the future.

——Don’t bother you anymore, I’ll contact you when I’m free.

Xu Yiqing:

--Okay, bye.

Tao Han sighed: "You really..."

"...What am I?" Xu Yiqing switched his phone to the Do Not Disturb mode, threw it to the other side of the bed, and picked him up from behind.

"Wow, your strength has grown!" Tao Han shouted while being hugged by him.

"Is this the point?" Xu Yiqing said, "Concentrate."

"My mind is full of your 'don't bother' and 'okay, goodbye'... My God." Tao Han said.

"I don't treat you like this." Xu Yiqing's tone was a little aggrieved.

"It's also..." Tao Han rolled his eyes and looked at him, "Then you work hard, let me feel that you are not indifferent."

So he turned around, put his arms around him and kissed him.

……

In some matters, Xu Yiqing really became more and more open-minded.

Tao Han was not only very satisfied with the talent's scene, but also very satisfied with Xu Yiqing's answer. In short, he was satisfied. He really liked the feeling that his boyfriend didn't like outsiders.

The next day, Xu Yiqing went back to Xingge to attend the pre-concert preparation meeting.

After the meeting, he went to Bai Fan's office.

Xu Yiqing handed the phone to Bai Fan: "Look."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the office was knocked open. Xu Yiqing was standing next to the table, and a hand patted his shoulder from behind.

Xu Yiqing turned around, but there was no one.

The childish ghost looked at him from the other side, blinked at him and smiled: "Hahaha."

"Childish or not, kid." Xu Yiqing said helplessly.

"Hello, Teacher Xu! I heard that you just finished the meeting." Lin Wen ran to Bai Fan with a smile and saw that he was concentrating on his mobile phone.

"What are you looking at, isn't this Teacher Xu's phone?" Lin Wen also leaned over to look.

"Want to see it?" Bai Fan said.

"Yes." Lin Wen stood next to him.

Xu Yiqing leaned against the table drinking coffee, looked around, and suddenly heard Lin Wen shout.

"Damn! What kind of shocking green tea is this? It's as good as what I had back then."

"...Are you as self-deprecating as this?" Xu Yiqing silently handed him a cup of coffee.

"That's true." Bai Fan handed the phone to Xu Yiqing, and saw Lin Wen looking up at him.

"But my wife is much cuter than him." Bai Fan, who was full of desire to survive, answered.

"This can't be the one who played CP with you." Lin Wen said, "Wow, this is really clever. Look, let me translate it for you... Cough, it's not me who is having an affair with you I mean, it’s all my team’s fault, you have to blame them, don’t blame me, we are still good friends! Let’s talk next time~”

"Yes." Bai Fan raised his finger.

"That's right." Lin Wen laughed and looked at Xu Yiqing, "But Teacher Xu, what do you think? In fact, this kind of thing is very common."

"In Chu Ling's company, there are only three artists including him. The other two have recently gained resources because of his rising net worth. Their company is a little-known small workshop. I used to think that he was young and still reading watches. , I met him a few times and felt that he was very clever, I am afraid he was tricked by the small company again." Bai Fan nodded thoughtfully, "Now it seems that the small workshop has a lot of ideas, and he is much smarter than me. That’s right. Isn’t he the one who would rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail?”

"... He clearly knows that selling corruption is not a long-term solution, and if he does this, the film will be in trouble when it is released in China..." Lin Wen frowned, "This group of fools, this is not how they make quick money."

"It's not easy to make a transition after earning money. How old is he?" Bai Fan said, "The contract will be almost up by then, and the net worth will rise. Why don't you jump to another company every minute?"

Bai Fan walked slowly to the floor-to-ceiling windows. Outside the window was the setting sun and tall buildings. Among the steel forests, the Xingge Building was just one of them.

"If you make up your mind to ignore it, I think it's okay." Bai Fan said, "It's very common in the entertainment industry to take advantage of each other, but I still hope everyone can be fair, right?"

"You can say that, of course I think it's okay." Xu Yiqing said, "Thank you."

"You two are really serious when you talk." Lin Wen said, "Don't talk about such a serious topic, let's talk about the concert."

"The topic of the concert is not serious yet, my head is getting bigger." Xu Yiqing said helplessly.

……

After school started, Chen Jue finally ushered in his third year of junior year when he could do a part-time internship in an aboveboard manner.

At that time, he was already in the summer vacation, and he was tortured by the extremely high-intensity work pressure of this entertainment company. He was already skinny, and now he has lost a lot of weight.

Tao Han always felt that what happened in Italy had hit him hard, and he didn't know whether Yu Zilian would regret it, let alone whether Chen Jue could afford to wait.

"Is the entertainment industry fun?" Tao Han went to the cafeteria to eat with Chen Jue after class. Seeing him, he felt distressed, and then thought that it was his boyfriend who tortured him, and he couldn't even scold him.

"It's fun." Chen Jue asked for a bowl of noodles, and Tao Han was adding vegetables to his bowl. God, I'm so nervous."

"You should pay attention to rest, I see that you are tired..." Tao Han said, "I have to pay attention to my homework in my junior year. Although I said that I can give you a small tutoring, but if you don't miss classes, you can't miss classes. I can't I always protect you, lest people say that I had an affair with you."

"I know, I will." Chen Jue said, "Thank you teacher."

However, Tao Han has not seen Xu Yiqing for several days. He has seen Chen Jue more times than Xu Yiqing. Most of his recent situation is heard from Chen Jue. I will send a WeChat message from time to time.

Tao Han usually said at eleven or twelve:

——Good night brother, don't be too tired.

Xu Yiqing replied at three or four in the morning:

——Good night, I'm done.

It was already morning when Tao Han saw this message, so he replied:

--Good morning.

Xu Yiqing will come back soon:

——Good morning, I have already started work.

On the last night before the concert, Tao Han was reading a book on the sofa and fell asleep when he felt someone pat him awake.

In a daze, Tao Han saw the dim corridor light in the living room, and Xu Yiqing in front of him.

"Brother?" Tao Han rubbed his eyes, "Why are you here..."

"Why are you sleeping here?" Xu Yiqing hugged him and sat up.

At first glance, it was obvious that he had just come back from the outside, and he was wearing a hat and a mask.

Tao Han had already taken a shower, and yawned in his padded pajamas: "I fell asleep after reading a book..."

In fact, these days when Xu Yiqing was not around, he was so casual. The most casual time was lying on the floor reading a book, sleeping on the floor all night after reading it, and getting up the next day to go to work.

Xu Yiqing, who had seen through everything, frowned and said, "You don't want to sleep wherever you want these days, right?"

"..." Tao Han didn't want to continue this topic with him, and let him hug him, "Why are you back? Isn't tomorrow a concert?"

"That's why I have to come back." Xu Yiqing said, "Come back to see you, I miss you."

Of course Tao Han missed him too, he leaned his head on his shoulder and said, "I miss you too...but I didn't expect you to come back."

"I want to see you no matter what." Xu Yiqing said, "I also want to sleep with you in my arms."

"Okay." Tao Han said, "Go take a shower."

The two lay down and slept in each other's arms. This feeling was long-lost and familiar.

Although Xu Yiqing was very tired, she still chatted with him with half-closed eyes.

Tao Han felt sorry for him, and lay on his side touching his dark circles: "Are you sleeping in a hotel outside? Or a company dormitory?"

"All of them." Xu Yiqing said.

"Did you sleep well?" Tao Han was always afraid that he would wake up from a nightmare again in the middle of the night, if no one hugged him to comfort him, would he be uncomfortable all night long.

"I've done it once or twice." Xu Yiqing said, "It's not bad for me."

"Yeah." Tao Han sighed, "It must be because you're too tired to dream... But it's okay."

He wrapped his arms around his neck, pressing his head to his neck.Putting his arms around his shoulders, he circled the others, this is how Tao Han would pat Xu Yiqing to help him fall asleep when he couldn't sleep well in the past.

"I'll see you at the concert tomorrow." Tao Han said, "But I'm here tonight, so take a good rest."
